BRYNN HAS BEEN A CURIOUS CARDINALS MENTOR SINCE 2020 AND ATTENDS STANFORD UNIVERSITY.

Imagine you’re going to be on the cover of your favorite magazine, what would your dream headline be?

Listen to Brynn, a sophomore at Stanford University, speak about her dream headline. If you, or your student, are struggling to answer this question Curious Cardinals is here to help. We believe in helping students find the spark that unlocks their potential, curiosity, or even willingness to go further than they can imagine on their own.

If your middle school asked you to come back and teach a group of kids for one day, what would you teach?

If you can’t explain it, then you haven’t understood it well enough. Teaching is an act of distillation, searching across the bounds of an idea and distilling it down to it’s essence. Listen to Benjamin, a sophomore at Stanford University studying Bioengineering, speak on the topics he’s passionate about teaching.
